What is the one effect everyone should own?

This doesn't necessarily have to always be in the signal chain, but more like what everyone should own and use on a somewhat regular basis.

 

 

It can either be an effect in general, or a specific pedal.

 

Discuss. :wave:

Not really an effect, but I agree - very important part of any setup.

 

In terms of effects, I don't think there is one kind everyone should own.

 

I personally couldn't do without a good big muff type pedal, but I know some folks hate 'em/don't need 'em etc...

Dirt pedal of your choice. My DS-1 hasn't been used in anger for years but I'm never going to get rid of it.

Most amps can be dialled into a reasonable if not great clean sound. A decent dirt pedal then adds the rest of the equation.

agreed

 

its amazing how much one knob can have such an effect on your tone....bit like life really.

Yes, this is the Life pedal...

 

Good to add attack and response to your tone, sparkle and clarity, boost and small amounts of dirt.

I love it.

 

One of these or a good comp should be on everyones board.
